Drug Trafficking

Turkish police have seized the third largest haul of cocaine in the country’s history, the interior minister, Ali Yerlikaya, has announced, as groups monitoring organised crime warned that Turkey was becoming an entry point for drugs reaching Europe.

[...]

Groups monitoring organised crime say Turkey is growing as a transit hub for cocaine coming from South America to Europe as security at ports such as Rotterdam in the Netherlands becomes tighter.

In a report dated October last year, the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime said a 44% rise in cocaine seizures in Turkey between 2021 and 2022 was not reflected in data on domestic consumption, “suggesting that the country is likely to serve as a drug corridor”.

not overtly familiar with stimulant routes

‘trolleys’ from S America door to door tried and tested - via west Africa, Spain, Belgium, Netherlands, Harwich and Liverpool but only Liverpool got its own chang line independent of the rest

long way round and the Black Sea mafia zone is ultra hot, west African routes are switching between certain religious-terrorism groups, equally less h coming from Afghanistan too yet still enough in storage to exchange for marching powder = still real power/influence, what do you think @thirdform ?

cat’s cradle of groups, huge sums, everyone here can probably score stimulants more quickly than nearly any other illicit substance barring cannabis in real time, never seen as many pub landlords selling just one example and if you’d shown the ‘respectable’ landlord demographic shift before post-doc life wouldn’t have believed it from sheer scale
